I have to mount a 50" tv such that a stud falls right in the center. So would like the wallplates to span 32". Can i buy an additional wallplate ?

I would install lag bolts in the wooden stud at the center and just use toggle bolts at the ends. These TVs nowadays are not very heavy and the toggle bolts can easily hold 75 pounds apiece in drywall.

Your wall studs should be every 16". I believe the mounting kit came with 4 ea black stud screws. I would center the mounting bracket on the center stud and use a stud finder to find the left and right wall studs and use the mounting screws on the left and right studs as well.

Im not aware that you can buy an additional wall plate. Another alternative would be to cut the drywall away and put a piece of wood blocking next to the stud that falls in the center.

The wallplate is 24" so it won't span 2 stud spaces (assuming studs @ 16" oc). I seriously doubt that you will be able to purchase just the wallplate. You could buy a complete assembly and just use the wallplate, but I don't think that is necessary. If you get a good solid screw connection to the center stud at the top and bottom of the wallplate, and use good quality toggle bolts at the ends of the wallplate into the drywall, that will be sufficient to carry the weight of a 50" TV. The connection to the stud will carry the weight of the TV; the toggle bolts will hold the wallplate tight to the wall at the ends.

The TV slides back and forth on the mount. It doesnt have to be centered on the wall mount. Mount it in studs and then slide it to center it. The four lag bolts can more than handle the unbalanced load.

Instead of plywood just go with a different design which allows you to screw into the center stud.. like this oneTilting TV Wall Mount with Security Locking for 32-70" TV's, AEON-35108Tilting TV Mount with Tilt n Stay Technology for TV's -32-60"- AEON-35108

I've got a buddy and used this same kit for a 60 inch. He recommended going to Home Depot and purchasing the dry wall anchor bolts and adding this to help with the support. I'm not sure if you can purchase an extra wall plate. If that were the case you might want to look into getting a bigger mount all together. All in all you may need to slide the tv over one way or the other to hit the studs or find a new location. Hope this helps out.

You can do that but it wil be more forward from the wall. Since I used mine on a smaller TV in the bedroom I found the studs to be farther apart then what the support holes on the bracket allowed. I placed two 1"x2" wood studs across longer than TV bracket. I secured them to the studs and was able to move the bracket more to the left or right. Support for weight was still there since the wood was secured to the studs. You can't really see the wood since its 1" and the TV covers it. Hope this helps

Not sure bud. My tv was 66lbs and sagged pretty badly. It's not the base plate that goes in the wall, it's the extended plate that the tv rests on. I would *guess* that 30 lbs might be ok? I went with. $200+ peerless mount and am MUCH happier.

Yes, but your issue is whether 2 studs are where you want the TV placed. As the wall plate is about 19", it means you can have a maximum offset of about 3" from a stud (16" OC). If you want to slide (side-to-side) the TV more than 3", you will need a mount with a longer wall plate. There's one with a 27" wide plate which means you can mount it (one arm) almost 11" from a stud vs. 3" of this mount.

most wall mounts have a universal type design. the mounting holes are about 10 to 12 inches wide and 4 to 6 inches tall. generally youll want to find a mount that will support your overall size tv. for this tv a 28 to 36 inch mount should be perfect. hope this helps.

the tv we mounted was 32" and the swivel wall mount works great! Be sure and anchor into wall studs.

According to the owners manual, the TV CAN be wall mounted using a kit that meets the VESA standard. The 32" TV uses a different kit than the 39/42" TV. I use the supplied stand so I can only tell you what the manual says. I hope this helps. Merry Christmas.

You could mount the center of the frame to a stud, but would at least recommend the installation of large drywall anchors on the ends for added stability and strength. Personally wouldn't recommend a single stud on a large TV.

I purchased a Samsung TV that weighs 19# to wall mount. The bracket is not challenged at all with that weight (it is well made), so I think 30 to 35# may still work with sound stud mounting of the base screws. I did not buy the VESA TV brand that is mentioned in the brcket materials, and did have to buy 4 new metric mounting screws for the Samsung brand. If you are buying Vesa, the screws may ne long enough.

The width is only for the television; only the upright bar mounts to the wall, and pretty securely on one stud, so you'd likely want to center the assembly on a stud. Also, lots of options for fitting various television configurations. i'd be surprised if a TV didn't fit one of the options.

Depends on the weight of the TV. But I wouldn't risk it. All wall mounts are really designed to use studs. Anything else is only as good as the wall anchor you use. I don't recommend doing it.

We mounted it a single stud, and it works good for our 32" LCD TV. So, i think you could.

You need that piece for stability. The towers walls are what hold the whole thing together, if you move them apart you will not be able to put the rest of it together. I would buy a stand that would fit the size TV you have.

The size of the tv does not matter but what matters most is whether the hole of the two plates & the tv match. these holes are part of tv standards so you need to look up the samsung manual and also the installer parts manual. go to their site. you will get a pdf document. the last part is the weight of the tv. check to see if the weight is ok with the wall ( the studs mainly). if that is ok than you are fine. and you will have to install bang in the middle of the wall. not in the corner.regardsParag

May have to open up the wall and use heavy nut and bolt - as to bolt the mount to the steel wall studs. I had wood studs and drilled pilot holes to screw in the large lag bolts, put in four for the mounting plate - my TV is a 60" and weighs 75 Lbs...this bracket extends out like...20" that is a lot of weight on the wall...mine went up perfect and I really like the bracket and it can be turned in many directions - overall I wanted the the bracket to be absolutely affixed to the wall - to prevent the TV from pulling everything out of the wall and onto the floor....

I have the same wall mount. I have mine set up for two studs, although if necessary there holes in the center if I wanted to set it up for just one stud. I chose the 2 stud option to be safe.

I just installed this unit in my home. The plate that goes against the wall will not accommodate 24" spaced studs. But what you could do is find a 26" long piece of strong wood (1" thick ply, or 3/4" solid wood) and attach that to your wall and then screw the plate for this unit into that piece of wood. This is a great wall unit that allows a full 90 degree swing of a 60" flat panel! The only one that I could find allowing that kind of swing. Good luck.
